02/24/2012- Thecus is constantly working on new ways to make NAS a more secure appliance for your data. Previously more focused on hardware innovation, the young Taiwanese company is now making its way into software development.

ElephantDrive: professional cloud backup solution

The ElephantDrive cloud backup module is designed to work for the NAS administrator and help save critical data efficiently and quickly to a secure cloud storage system. With this module installed, the selected data on the NAS will be protected and real time synchronized to the ElephantDrive cloud. Once enabled, backups continue to run in automated fashion – either scheduled or continuous – without the need for regular maintenance.

Together, Thecus and ElephantDrive bring you a simple, safe, secure, and online backup storage with the following key features.

Military grade encryption keeps your files safe and secure

Secure 128-bit SSL secures the transfer

Advanced 256-bit AES encryption secures the data at rest

The installation and running of the module is simple. For users without an existing ElephantDrive cloud account, an instant application through the NAS admin UI can be completed in seconds and includes a special trial offer: 50GB for free during the first month! After this period, users can either upgrade to a premium account or continue using ElephantDrive without paying if data is kept under 2GB.
